David Grange is married and claims 4 withholding allowances. If he is paid biweekly and earns $1,846 per period, use the percentage method to find his income tax withholding each pay period.

Answer: $74.60

Explanation:

For people who are paid biweekly, 1 withholding allowance = $161.5

4 withholding allowances = $646

Earnings after deducting withholding allowance = $1,846 - $646

Earnings after deducting withholding allowance = $1,200

For a married person who is paid biweekly, the percentage applicable to David's pay bracket is 10% on the amount over the $454

That is, 10% on $746 ($1200 - $454)

=$74.60
